Nice job on beat and tone is really good too, well done.
The video is out of sync - tune in to the upcoming class to fix that!
(insert shameless plug here)

Here is my attempt of “Hound Dog”, was more fun than I thought it would be when I first looked over the list. The king is gone but he is not forgotten

Definitely a few flubs and I am reminded again to work on technique exercises for my pinky but I really don’t like this song so I’m moving on…

Pretty darn nice job @doylecb
You kept a great groove for the most part.
Couple blips and blips but overall very very good.
The final run was a bit off but those things are tricky and require a lot of repetitions to get nailed down in the beginning. It’s totally cool to keep moving ahead.
Make a not for yourself, come back to this song in 2-3 months and I bet you’ll notice the “hard parts” aren’t hard anymore.
Keep up the great work, already see great progress.

Thanks John! That’s great advice to come back to things. I definitely see the benefits of playing even the songs I don’t like as a learning experience so honestly it’s not like I thought any of this was hard I just probably didn’t put in enough time. The time between videos doesn’t necessarily reflect how much time I am practicing the songs it’s just that sometimes life gets in the way but I am definitely planning on moving through all 50! Definitely appreciate you’re always the first one with constructive criticism.
